Saudi clerics `Uthman Al-Khamis and Sa`d Al-Ghamdi issued (in Nov. 2004) a fatwawawa that prohibits the use of the internet by women due to their "sinister nature." The fatwawawa added that women are forbidden "to open the internet except in the presence of a [male] guardian due to the [propensity of women to] prostitution and their wickedness." (thanks Ziad)
